North Toronto, Toronto

North Toronto is a dense, mostly high-rise part of Toronto where recent condo apartment buildings make up nearly all of the homes sold. The area is laid out on a street grid centred on the Yonge Street and Eglinton Avenue corridor. Mid-rise and tower buildings line the main roads, and quieter side streets sit behind them. Most homes sold were built between 2018 and 2023, so the building stock is new and modern in style. Condo apartments account for 96% of the 346 homes sold in the last 24 months. The typical home sold has 1 bedroom. The median sale price over that period was $594,500, and the median time on the market was 28 days. There are 15 homes for sale right now, which is a small number compared with the volume of recent sales. For getting around, no train or subway stations are on record inside the area. The Yonge subway line and the Eglinton Crosstown light rail line run through the wider Yonge and Eglinton district nearby. Yonge Street, Eglinton Avenue and Mount Pleasant Road are the major roads, and buses run along them. Highway 401 and the Don Valley Parkway can be reached by road to the north and east. Shops and services are mostly along the main roads and at street level in the newer buildings. They include cafes, grocery stores, restaurants and pharmacies, so many everyday errands are within a short walk. Green space in the area includes 60 Broadway Avenue Park, 85 Keewatin Avenue Park, Dawn Redwood Park and Redpath Avenue Parkette. Central Eglinton Community Centre is also inside the area. Three schools are located in the area: John Fisher Junior Public School and North Toronto Collegiate Institute, both in the Toronto DSB, and St Monica Catholic School in the Toronto CDSB.
